CNN Money names Durham #2 place to live for '20-somethings'

DURHAM — While young people often dream of living in the city, there are nice little outposts of small towns with plenty of their peers that they might overlook.

And these places usually have a strong sense of community, a surplus of bars and restaurants and an array of music and culture. (Of course, these are features that everyone could get used to, no matter what age.)

Sound too good to be true? CNNMoney combed through their list of best places to live to identify the 25 youngest towns chock full of twentysomethings.

Eagle Mountain, Utah came in #1 on the list with Durham, coming in at #2.

According to the Best Places database, Eagle Mountain and Durham play host to the next generation of America. “Durham is a terrific place to live and work no matter what age you are!” stated Administrator Todd Selig in a press release issued Friday afternoon.

“Durham has been working hard in recent years to broaden its tax base, hold down local property taxes, expand downtown business opportunities, and partner with the University of New Hampshire in new and creative ways for the benefit of the entire community,” Selig said of the recognition.
